Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
Doing a similar thread for the NBA so I can't leave out my hockey brethren. Who is the greatest defenseman who ever laced up the skates in the NHL? If you choose "other", please elaborate.

This is really tough for me because so many of these guys are great but I have to go with Larry Robinson. His plus/minus number was +730 and he won 6 Stanley Cups. What more can I say?
